About DT
Comment by the chart creator:
It’s interesting to see it set out in this way!
With regards to the ‘rituals’ sections, there are no rituals in the Baha’i Faith, though there are requirements such as daily private prayer.
Also spirits, angels and other metaphysical beings are referred to in the Baha’i Writings, but are not necessarily something to focus on or try to ‘summon’.
The ‘sacred places’ section made me think…One of Baha’u’llah’s prayers says that anywhere “where mention of God hath been made, and His praise glorified,” is blessed.
